Yeah in NA I will pull 3rd for power pulls or 4th (If I want to load it more for tuning) to cut the length of the pull time down. I don't get much of a difference in the peak power with the two different gears (NA) but it can change the shape a little.

For boosted application 3rd gear is too short.

I've tuned all over the country and even the same dynos will read different from location to location. The AWD Dyno Dynamics I use in Seattle reads the same as the local AWD Dynojet.

I remember tuning on a dyno and getting really high numbers. I even told the customer it seemed too high. Later I found out it was in STD correction vs. SAE and the difference was +5% which is huge on a 650 whp car. I think the temperature can make a huge difference in the SAE vs. STD correction.
